Ben Folds with yMusic – 7/16 – Cape Cod Melody Tent (Hyannis, MA)

Piano maestro Ben Folds has built his career out of leaping from one style of music to the next. Whether fronting his namesake alternative trio, Ben Folds Five, rocking the suburbs as a solo artist, collaborating with William Shatner and Nick Hornsby, or promoting a capella renditions of his popular songs, Folds always likes to change it up when the mood feels right. This time around he’s on tour with celebrated New York City-based chamber ensemble yMusic, who helped back the musician on his most recent solo album So There, a terrific merging of pop songs with classical flourishes alongside the debut recording of Folds’ critically acclaimed “Concerto For Piano and Orchestra.”

Doors to the venue, located in downtown Hyannis on Cape Cod, open at 7 pm with the show scheduled to start at 8 pm. VIP Packages are available.
